Abstract: A slide device, comprising first class members having spaces opening to sides formed in the longitudinal directions thereof and second class rail members positioned in the spaces, wherein either of the first and second class rail members movable relative to each other are formed in movable rail members and the other are formed in fixed rail members, the movable rail members are installed at both side parts of slide plates, the slide plates are positioned on brackets parallel with each other, and the movable rail member installed on the slide plate is supported by the fixed rail member installed on the slide plate.

Abstract: A magnetic video recording apparatus applicable to a video tape recorder or the like is designed integrally with a television camera. The apparatus has a video signal output unit for outputting first video signals, and a video signal recording unit for recording the first video signals outputting from the video signal output unit or second video signals obtained from an external video appliance. The video signal recording unit records the second video signals via correction means inserted for correcting the video signals to predetermined levels, but bypasses the correction means when recording the first video signals. Such bypass of the correction means eliminates any reduction of the signal-to-noise ratio that may otherwise be caused, hence preventing deterioration of the image quality in the reproduced video signals.
